BARCLAY TO PROCTOR

No. 5. H.M.S. Queen Charlotte Amherstburg 7th June 1813

Sir

I beg leave to represent to you that much inconvenience and delay will accrue to His Majestys Squadron for the want of a sufficient quantity of biscuit to proceed to Sea with.

I have in consequence to request you will be pleased to give such directions as may seem most expedient to obviate the above difficulty, as I can assure you it will much accelerate the refitting and victualling the Squadron on their arrival in port.

I am Sir &c &c &c

(Signed) R.H.B.

To Brigr. Genl. Procter &c. &c.
Sandwich.
